Fix a regression that crept in when downporting Windows improvements.
Instead of a shutdown thread, another thread that  handledsocket connection was created.

Ensure full path to dtrace binary is used, fixes builds where
/usr/sbin is not in $PATH.

Bug #33629: last_day function can return null, but has 'not null' flag set for result

LAST_DAY and MAKEDATE functions are documented as
returning NULL value, but actually they was implemented
as returning NOT NULL typed values.

That caused a confusing error "ERROR 1048 (23000): Column
'...' cannot be null" on queries like: 

  SELECT 1 FROM (SELECT LAST_DAY('0')) a;

indexed column in mysql.plugin table should use case-insensitive collation
for index lookups to work

(backport from 6.0)

  Fix for Bug#40128: drop-no_root fails under windows in 6.0-rpl.
  
  The problem was that directories with no permission (000) files
  are deleted differently on UNIX and on Windows.
  
  On UNIX, 000-permission file is deleted perfectly, but other files
  are left in the directory.
  
  On Windows, 000-permission file is not deleted, but other files
  are deleted.
  
  Also, the fix needed a change in mysqltest.c: 'chmod' directive
  should return a positive error code (in order to be handled).
  It's decided to return a constant '1' for all error codes
  just to be OS-independent.

  A patch for Bug#34828: OF is taken as OFF and a value of 0
  is set for variable SQL_notes.
  
  The problem was that partial match was allowed for keywords.
  
  A fix is to disable partial match and require full match.

  A fix for Bug#26704: Failing DROP DATABASE brings
  mysql-client out of sync.

  The problem was that we changed current database w/o caring
  whether it was dropped successfully or not.

  The fix is not to change current database if we failed to drop it.

Backport of the fix for BUG#33730 "Full table scan instead selected partitions for query more than 10 partitions"
from 6.0, made in sergefp@mysql.com-20090205190644-q8632sniogedhtsu

(from revision konstantin@mysql.com-20080627154042-923m6lzk7z77lrgj ). This moves the slow part
(10 seconds over 13) into a separate big test.
